Toys and entertainment

Fun in the sky with Bluey

Children are often excited about flying, but it’s also a long time for them to sit in one spot. That’s why, especially for our youngest passengers, we have Bluey: the little blue plane who goes on all sorts of adventures.

Every child aged two and up on an intercontinental KLM flight will receive a complimentary Bluey play set. This colourful package contains coloured pencils, a memory game, tic-tac-toe, a fun keychain, a sticker, a card game and more. With so much to do, there’s no need for a single moment of in-flight boredom. And with the Bluey sleep mask, even a cat nap is no trouble at all.

Are you flying with children within Europe? In that case, they’ll receive a free passport cover and Bluey activity book. And for the very tiniest passengers, we provide a special Bluey bib.

Entertainment

Family films

Bluey puts in an appearance in our entertainment system as well. Especially for KLM, a series of short films has been created about the exciting adventures of our charming mascot. But we also offer a wide range of kids’ movies and films for the whole family to watch together, of course. Prefer amusement that’s a bit more interactive? Under the ‘Games’ tab, you’ll find a multitude of games for young and old.

Meals

Chips and a pilot’s licence

On our intercontinental flights, we serve special kid’s meals for children aged two years and older. These meals are complimentary and can be easily arranged when you book your flight or via My Trip. We have things like tasty mini-burgers and chips on offer, for instance. While the exact menu varies per flight, with Bluey and a pilot game or ‘licence’ for the little pilots inside, every kid’s meal is a treat.

Safe travel on their own

Sometimes circumstances dictate that parents are unable to fly with their child and he or she must travel alone. We offer the Unaccompanied Minor Service specifically for children travelling without an adult.

When your child needs to travel alone, this is how it works. Prior to departure and arrival, our KLM staff (or personnel contracted by KLM) will escort your unaccompanied child during boarding and disembarking. During the flight, the cabin crew will pay extra attention to him or her as well. And once the destination has been reached, we will personally escort your child to meet the party you have authorised to collect him or her.
